Leg day 2:
Low bar squat:
20x5x2
60x5
80x3
90x2
100x1
70x10x3
BSS + Leg curls superset:
15x5x1 + 40x10x2 (each leg) (very tiring)
Leg extensions hold: 40x10sx2 each leg
Leg extensions (5 second eccentric phase): 40x10x2
Single leg calf raise (slow eccentric phase): BWx10, 20x10
Bodyweight: 93.4 kg
Exhaustion level: 9/10
Comments:
Tiring workout, as usual, although pretty good, I enjoyed it. I think these higher rep sets help with work capacity and also the form is a little better because the bar is lighter, at least at the beginning. They do push my heart rate into the 160s, though. In fact, I'm using my Apple Watch heart rate monitor to determine my rest intervals: I usually go when my heart rate goes below 120, preferrably below 110.
